Hold to time.

My hands fidget on my sleeve as the clock goes tick - tock - tick - tock

And my heart thumps right out of my chest as I am in shick - shock - shick - shock

Holding this time on my hands

May each minute be valued with many plans

As the world is pushing our soldiers down

But the lovers are patting their back without a frown

as their knees are getting weak

And we suddenly fall

Hold this time upon your chest and whisper

"can you slow down?"

Just to catch up to everything only if the clock didn't

tick tock tick tock

so fast.
